Residence, 59 North Main Street, June 4,1801 48 Kleptomania. A lady gave an afternoon tea during tbe season. The ladies laid aside their wraps in tbe hostess's chamber. She had left a number of stickpins in her cushion; on the dresser. When the company had gone the pins had gone also. Fortu? nately the pins were not her best, as she. had those on, but they were all gold, and] one was an enamelled pansy. A lady had an exquisitely bound copy of a rara book. One of her acquaintances was profuse in her expressions of admi? ration for the work. Every time she called the subject of the book was brought up. In fact, tbe visitor spoke of it bo frequently and so extravagantly that tbe hostess took an antipathy to hor ? One day this lady called and the lady of the house was delayed a little in going to . the parlor. When she did enter tbe vis? itor talked more volubly than usual, and [on every subject but tbe book. She ' made herself very entertaining, so much bo that-the hostess never thought of the book. That same evening it was discov? ered tha 1 the book was missing. Another lady who had travelled ex ten sively iin Europe, on one occasion brought home a fan of rare workmanship. It was most exquisitely beautiful. It was so lovely that she kept it on ber cabinet .in her drawing room. Tbe cabinet was filled with all sorts of rare and queer for? eign trophies, and it was one of tbe sub ejects with which she entertained her vis? itors. She was a charming talker, and c word or two here, or an interesting inci dent or anecdote there, relative to the article?,- ?*de s? visit to her not only pleasant but profitable. One morning tbe room was dusted, as usual; every? thing was intact. 3?hat afternoon thera were five or six callers* 3?be subject of European travel came tfj? with tbe last caller, aod the hostess turned toheit cab? inet. Tie fau was gone, and ha*never been found. Whoever took the fan has kept it cecreted, for all kinds of ruses have been tried to find It and all bzvn failed. Another lady gave a large company and asked several friends to assist her. Not haviog all tbe silver she wanted she asked her friends to bring some of their own upoons (not an uncommon occur? rence.) Tbe epoons were used, none of them weie taken from the dining room to be washe-j. In fact tbey were not take.i ' from tbe room by tbe servants at all. At tbe close of tbe entertainments- each lady gathered up her spbo'te. Out of all which were used, nine were lasting. Tbe hostess felt terribly. Some of the spoona belonged to sets and others b>~ longed to collections Private detecliv*-* were put upon tbe track, but none were recovered It would be a difficult matter to find any spoons, because nearly every woman bas a collection, and among nu many odd spoons there would not be much chance for a detective or any one ele* to tilea any as stolen; even the. loser would scarcely dare say certain spoon weie hers, unless Bhe had tb?m riis Itioctly marked. There is scarcely an. r? jticle which is less readily traced thai, a -spoon. One wnmaSy.who is burdened with i ? malady, ia net able to go a week without taking some articles from the shops. Toe merchants make bills for all she takes and they are sen! regularly to tbe hus? band with a peculiar mark opposite i ae item, whb:h is a sigu to tbe husband that tbey were stolen, the husband aod mer? chant having made an agreement regard? ing it, Whenever tbe bill comes in it is prewptly paid, and if the sum is large at all fir? .busband gaea off on a spree.

Perhaps ?the husband knows the wife cannot help ;herself ani he bas compasvion for her. ?;He is ablf to pay for wbatnver she g-ts, and* possibly his kind heart allows aim to overlook the trouble.

Another womaff is cursed with klepto? mania in a mild form $ she has k p -o* cbaot for appropriating hairpins. When in a shop near the counter where hair? pins are 30 easily taken rikr steal! tily slips one o r more packages info* her Vg. Since the bone, shell and larger lairp-ms were placed in tbe boxes she taket* t*era with equal composure. She cannot matffe use of what she has taken, and what sbe can do with them is a mystery. She must have boxen aud boxes full of them. The loss of a paper of pins is so little proba? bly the merchants do not bother them? selves aboat it. If she was inclined to take anytMng more than hairpins there would be cause for greater watchful ness; as she contents herself with that, nothing is said. Why women are chore prone to klepto? mania than men, or if tbey are, is prob? ably a subject that the students of tbe disease can best answer. One thing is certain, tbe only storieB tbe writer can call to mind are those in which women were concerned.?Indianapolis Journal. T Jlnnlag Fruit Pays. A noted peach grower says that he is well satieSf d that every dollar invested in the labor of thinning fruit has paid him well. He thins when tbe fruit is about three-fourths of an inch in diame? ter, leaving only the bes^ specimens, and these not nearer than four or five inches to each other. This is heroic treatment, for it means throwing away at least half of tbe fruit from well set spurs. Then the fruit that remains, however, growa to a larger size, is of fine fhvor and color, and will fill as many baskets as though all bad been left, and brings a vastly better price in the market. Add to this the fact the vitality of the tree is not drawn upon to nearly bo great an extent, and anyone may Bee wh?re the pro?t comes in. Trees treated in this manner may be reasonably expected to produce fruit every year, and the best profit will come in what for oth? ers are off years. It is not the produc? tion of fruit, but the production of great amounts of seeds or pits, which have the reproductive power aud which contain the germ of life, that saps tbe vitality of tbe tree. Bring this under reasonable con? trol, and there will be no off year for a healthy, ma.ture, well-cultivated tree of any sort._ ?

The oftener we feel it the more we become demoralized. I cannot better illustrate this than a story told me by Col. Bailey Peyton, United States minister to Chili in 1852 and city attorney of San Fran? cisco in 1856. To a party of friends in 1856 he said: "Boys, it's no use talk? ing, we can become accustomed to all dangers, no matter how imminent, by familiarity, except? the danger of earth? quakes. The more you feel 'era the more you don't like 'em and the worse you hate 'em. I have heard the whistle of bullets, and the roar of cannon in battle and never dodged. But my experience in Chili took the starch out of me. I had been but a few days in Santiago, the cap? ital of Chili, when I visited the leading; store on the plaza in that city. While standing behind the counter, in an in? stant, without any promonition, the pro* prietor and twenty clerks simultaneously leaped the counter and rushed out of the front door.' I looked at them in astonish? ment, and said to myself: 'Are they crazy? What's the matter with them?' I Slowly they returned to their places, I \ i asked tbeio. what was the matter. They replied: *E1 temblor. Didn't you feel tbe tembJor?' To me it was a trifle. I Two weeks later I was giving a swell ? I dinner to the diplomatic corps in Santi? ago. In the midst of it came a temblor, a very lively one, and every man of the party leaped from his seat and rushed for the door or the window. I said lo my? self : 'Of all t&H cowards I ever met with tbeBe people exceed.' But, boys, I hadn't been in that country more than j three months before no quarter horse in Tennessee could beat me in a break for j tbe frontdoor when one of those tem-1 blors made its appesr.ince. You can j stand bullets and cannon balls, but the tewblor? will fetch you.*' | iloney In the Heart of a Tree. A remarkable discovery wa? recently made at the Catbays yard of the Tariff Vale Railway company. A iarge eim tree, grown in Gloucestershire, was ber?g j cot into timber, when, right in the very ' heart, s cavity measuring eight feet by seven* sad a half inches in diameter was: discovered almost completely filled witir J tbe comb of the honey bee, together with ' squirrePw ?kull. No means of access to the hollow was discoverable, neither was decay anywhere apparent, and around the cavity itself no less than fifty "rings," each ring denoting a year's growlb, were counted, the outer-bark being, loo, with i out a flaw. The hollow was of uniform size throughout, and presented the appear? ance of having been bored with an auger, and, great though its dimensions were, it i was practically filled witb tbe comb, proving that the bees mutt have Keen in possession for several year*. Empty combs of the queen bee also showed that tbey had beeu swarmed. How tbe bees got there can only be guessed, but it is surmised r.hat R squirrel once occupied a decayed hole in the tree, cleared away the decay, occupied the cavity an its own, and there died. Then tbe beeri entered into possession and filled ihe hole with the comb, when by some means tbe entrance, which must have been small, became topped, tbe large quantity of grub ans> fly being taken as demonstrative that th* jif.H was not voluntarily deserted. Tb?* for fifty years the growth of tbe timber *ent on. Tbe entrance being absolutely obliter? ated and tbe hole hermetically sealed, the comb was preserved from di*c?y for , half a century, to be at last found in the jway described.

"Yes?" he replied, interrogatively, j "Yes, and they say I shouldn't use them; but I do, just tbe same. Do you think they are injurious?" "Um?er?no, I should say they were not," said the doctor slowly, as if con? sidering his fees in the case. "That's what I told papa," .she ex? claimed triumphantly.

So all ter crosses turned into crowns One morning sbe was late. It was lit? tle sister's fault entirely. She had what she called a tooth achey night, and slept so peacefully that morning on her big Bister's arm that it made her late. The merchant himself saw her oome in one hour behind time. She was smiling and hurrrying in, and he stopped her. Pull? ing out a gold watch, he opened it, held it up before her face without a word, and waited to Bee the effect. "Isn't it lovely ?" she Baid.

Climbed the Stairs. Augusta Chronicle, May loth. Perhaps tho most remarkable runaway ever known in Augusta occurred lato yesterday afternoon. One of Dr. J. M. Hull's fine horses was standing on the jSorth side of Broad street hitched to a light road cart. The horse hitched to a delivery .wagon to A. W. Stnlb & Co. backed against Dr. Hull's horse. This frightened tho latter horse, which is a very spirited animal, and ho started on a run across tho street. An electric car was approaching, going up town, and the horso turned and ran down the street. Beaching the inclined piano which leads from tho street to the socond story of the new Chronicle build? ing, he leaped entirely over it, carrying tho cart with him. Ho then turned and ran across the street again, ran over a largo pilo of lumber ly? ing on tho opposito side, and finally?the crowning and most wonderful feature of all?ran up the steps leading to his mas? ter's office in tho second story of tho Ma? sonic Hall. The entrance and stairway was barely wide enough to admit tho cart. But he dashed straight in, reached tho first land? ing in safety, and went on up tho socond flight. When lie reached tho floor abovo ho started on into the auditorium, but tho door was shut and ho turned back, and in a rather narrow spaco turned around, with the cart still attached to him. Ho returned to the head of the stairs and thero stopped, within ton fectof tho ofiico of his master. Tho doli very horso had in tho mean? time been frightened by tho running away of the other. He ran entirely around tho block and after creating considerable ad? ditional excitement, stopped just where he started. The crowds soon assembled at the cn tranco of tho Masonic Hall to witness tho novel sight of a horso in such a placo as tho second story of a public building, and it was necessary to call in the assistance of tho police to to keep thorn back. A negro who wns at work in the audi? torium was nearly frightoned out of bis wits, and thought his last day had come. He finally summoned courage to tako hold of the horse. Tho problem which then arose, was how to get the horso back down stairs. Sever? al plans wcro suggested. It was even triod to raako him walk down backwards, but ho refused to go that way. Dr. Kerf, tho veterinary surgeon, final? ly arrived on tho scene. Ho hud two ne? gro men to tako tho horso by tho bits and lead, while others pushed, and in this way tho down trip wa? made. It was round on examination that in going up tho Kit ps neither tho horso nor tho cart was hurt in tho slightest. Tho slight injuries sustained by the cart wore made by coming In contact with a tele? graph polo before tho door was reached. It was also found that tho delivery horse which ran around tho square and came back to the starting point intime to witness tho crowd in iho midst of their excitement at the strange porformanco of tho other horse, had also made the trip ?without Injuring in the slightest the ve hiclo to which ho was hitched. Let ns hare Free Banks. There is now a movement seriously on foot in Congress to abolish tho discrimi? nating tax on Stato bank notes. This movement was sure to start simultaneous? ly with tho defeat of tho silver movement. It is confined mainly to tho Southern States, but it has elomonts of growth which must bo briefly noticed before con? sidering tho merits of tho plan. It is so long sinco wo havo soon any Stato bank notes that wo aro accustomed now to con? sider thorn as something unlawful and akin to counterfeiting. Yet if tho 30 per cent. Federal tax wero ropealod, tho wholo machinery for issuing, regulating and redeeming such notes would bo found on the Now York statute book, ready made, and we prosumo that similar ma? chinery, disused, but not abolished, would bo found in the other older States. Stato bank notes would como into exist? ence by a natural process without any now legislation. In Now York tho security of our own Stato bonds, or of United States bonds, is required for circulation notes. Tho State bonds having all disappeared from the market, only United States bonds could bo used, but sinco notes could bo issued on these up to their par value instead of 90 per cent, thereof (as under tho nation? al bank act,) it would be worth while to buy them for Stato bank issues. In short, all tho apparatus exists for transforming tbe currency system of the country by means of a bill of not moro than five lines repealing that discriminating tax. And as to this repeal the advocates of it say, with a good deal offjree, that tho ex? ercise of tho F?deral taxing power, not to raise revenue, but to kill off a legitimate vocation?ono declared to bo such by the highest tribunal in tho land?is a perver? sion and stretch of that power which no number of repetitions can justify or palliate. This movement has its most active supporters in the South, whore the silver movement is the strongest. In that quar? ter it is an alternative to free coinage. It would be possible politically to take eve? ry Southern Stato out of the silver cate? gory by offering Stato bank notes instead thereof, and whilo wo cannot as yet give our support to tho plan, we can say, nev? ertheless that as botween free silver and free banking we prefer tho latter. There is an idea prevailing in tho rural South that there is a shortage of money in the country. This idea is fixed and widespread, and there is no uso to argno about it. It is this idea that has mado so many and such determined advocates of tho free coinago of silver there. It is the same idea that gave birth to the wild subtreasury plan. Anything which shall, in the minds of tho people, serve as a sub? stitute for free silver and subtreasury, will kill both of those heresies with ono stone. A systom of State bank note is? sues is, upon tho faco of things, a more speedy and effectual means of providing a new supply of monoy than oithcr of the other plans. We say "upon the faco of things," because in reality, if the uotes wore properly secured, tho facilities for providing new supplies of money would bo little if any greater than thoy aro un? der the national banking system. The time is approaching, and it may bo nearer than any of us think, when tho banking problem must bo taken up and settled. There is a gradual shrinkago of national bank notes going on in obedience to veil-known causes. Tho vacuum is be? ing filled wlth'what Secretary Foster calls "silver behind"?with paper which is really Government obligations, like greenbacks, except that they have an ap? parent backing of silver bullion, which is of no moro importance than the backing of firebrick with which the treasury vaults aro lined. The question, wo say, must como up for decision soon, whether this wretched system, extorted from the fears of the Republican parti", whilo tho force bill was pending two years ago, shall continue, or some substitute shall be found for it. "Unsettled questions havo no pity for the repose of nations," and boro is ono of them that will kcop voxing us till it is taken up and thrashed out by healthy and sufficient discussion, and de? cided. As our readers know, wo consid? er the present national banking system tho best for our purposes that has ever been devised by the wit of man, although there is pressing need of a new basis of security for circulating notes. We should bo sorry to see it superseded or oven flanked by a system of State bank issues. But things cannot stand still. Something must bo done soon in accord with human intelligence, or something will happen in spite thereof. It enn bo said with truth that the State banks of tho South and tho East in tho olden time were generally good, and it can bo said with probable truth that no very bad banking like the wild cat and red dog currency of tho "West would now bo possible in any part of the country.?New York Evening Post. ?

AFTER FIVE YEARS of patient and persevering endeavor I have at last succeeded in getting control of the best hand-made copper distilled Whiskey in the world. This Whiskey has been tested by the United States Chemist at Washington, D. C, and declared to be perfectly free from all poisonous chemicals generally present in the dis? tillation of all Whiskeys commonly used in the United States. It is entirely free from the maddening effect, the nauseating of the stomach, and the immediate intoxication that is always the result of the use of an inferior article. It is pleasant to the palate, has not that burning effect so common in other goods. It is strengthening, invigora? ting and mild, giving the bouyancy of youth to old age. It is stimulating, to the over? worked and feeble : in oases of consumption, heavy colds, weak lungs, debility and loss of appetite it is quickly recommended by the leading doctors and hospital physicians in the United States, and no sick room should be without it. All enfeebled, weak, old and infirm should take it daily as directed, and thereby regain that bouancy and strength that countless thousands stand so much in need of. This Celebrated Whiskey is sold as cheap as a very common article, and can be found for sale at JOHN O'DONNELL'S PALACE SALOON, SOUTH MAIN STREET, ANDERSON, S. C. In addition to the above I have the different vintages of Europe, including the cele? brated bands of Wines from Germany, France, Italy, Spain and Portugal. Also, Scotch and Irish Whiskeys, Dublin and London Porter, Bass Ale, aud all other Liquors that go to complete a First Class Saloon. JOHN ODONNELX.
